Ryu's gaze didn't change much. In his eyes, Brutus was almost too slow. He had already realized that the latter was going to move long ago, he could seem to see the progress of the most likely event and it hardly left him moved. It was as though the same slowing effect he could have on his cultivation could happen to his thoughts as well.
The only unfortunate matter about this was that this slowing effect had no impact on the real world. While he experienced Brutus moving exceptionally slowly, that didn't mean that the latter truly was moving that slow, nor did it magically give him more time to react… At least not in this state.
Brutus' fist appeared before Ryu's face, a fiery momentum shifting behind it. The air crackled and popped as it was superheated, a powerful aura enveloping the surroundings.
